Gracious Oasis

14 Costley Street

Freemans Bay, Auckland

This gracious Villa has graced the northern slopes of Freeman's Bay since 1886, since then it has only changed hands three times, here is your chance to secure a piece of Freeman's Bay history. The elegant charm of yesteryear is still evident in this grand old dame. The romance of days gone by are well and truly alive in this two storied Villa, a manageable sized property that's perfectly formed. Further enhanced by a recent modernisation, complete with all the creature comforts of today like Italian tiles, gold leaf touches and real crystal chandeliers in the living room, with under floor heating to the bathrooms and gas heating.

On arrival, the upper level opens with two double bedrooms, main bathroom leading to the Kitchen/living beyond that flows effortlessly to the outdoors. Downstairs houses the single internal garage- elusive in these areas, plus the third bedroom/studio or work from home option with its own access, bathroom and laundry.

A virtual secret Oasis on the city fringe, is the tranquil tiered garden that quietly climbs the section to the north, revealing substantial unexpected views over the surrounds. Picturesque setting of cobbled stone, fruit trees and flowers growing in gay abandon. Set amongst rambling cottage garden there's even a studio with which to write your next novel and a quaint garden shed. Enjoy many a night in the elevated pergola BBQ area unwinding over a chilled glass of wine, entertaining friends, taking in the vista of impressive city lights.

The uniqueness of this property are further magnified by its location, rarely do we see a property that offers so much and only a short stroll to the CBD, Ponsonby's cafe mile, The Viaduct, and whilst you have a secure car space you may never need it. Your life can truly start here, be the envy of your friends. Change your life today, grab yourself a piece of fruit from the mini orchard, start the year writing that best seller, you know you want to!
